THE ROCK
A granite stone beneath a tree
A token to someone gone
Placed there by four of her children
Broken hearts she left alone
It marks Mama's final exit
A strong woman passed this way
For years she was the one we turned to
That's why I turned in here today
.
(Chorus)
Mama I'm not only here.... to place roses on your stone
Your little boy feels like a lamb... I feel so lost and all alone
All my life you've been the one who would listen while I'd talk
No I'm not here to see the stone... I'm here to see THE ROCK
.
I'll just sit down here beside you
Like I was ten years old again
If you don't mind I'll pour my heart out
Mama, like I did back then
That woman left me torn to pieces
She's not comin' back this time
You're the one who always gave me strength
You're the one who made things right
.
(Chorus)
Mama I'm not only here.... to place roses on your stone
Your baby's feeling like a lamb... a little lost and all alone
All my life you've been the one who would listen while I'd talk
No I'm not here to see the stone... I'm here to see THE ROCK
I'm not here to see the stone... I'm here to see THE ROCK
.
